A
The ebike has become an essential item, and even the King has been spotted riding one. According to the
market research company Mintel, sales have almost tripled over the past five years. While ebikes have become
increasingly commonplace, they are still undeniably expensive. You can pick up a perfectly adequate push bike for
£300, but most ebikes cost nearly £2,000. Now, Cycling Electric, designed to help consumers choose an ebike,
offers the following recommendations.
Best folding bike
Carbo Model X
Price: £2, 799 | Weight: 13.3kg
Range: up to 34 miles
This is one of the most convenient bikes, from a little-known label. The lightweight Carbo X is the perfect
example of convenience thanks to its carbon frame and belt drive, instead of a metal bike chain. This makes it
lighter and less likely to get messy than an electric Brompton, with its more traditional, oily chain.
Most stylish
Temple Cycles Classic
Price: from £2, 995 | Weight: 19kg
Range: up to 74 miles
This Bristol-based brand is known for its elegant pushbikes, which are hand-built in the city. This is its electric
version. It’s a very sleek and functional commuter option and not too heavy. Temples have fewer proprietary (品牌
专卖的) parts and so are serviceable in any bike shop. Stylish as they may be, the VanMoofs and the Cowboys can
be a bit more complex to get back-up and service.
The money-no-object option
Riese & Müller Nevo4 GT Vario GX
Price: £5, 380 | Weight: 28.4kg
Range: up to 93 miles
This is a prime example of the attention to detail delivering a high-quality experience in functionality, comfort
and practicality — if you can afford it. It has the capacity to handle 25kg of luggage in a pannier, powerful road
lights and a beautifully smooth motor.
1. What is the advantage of the Temples over other stylish ebike brands?
A. They are more lightweight. B. They have more functions.
C. They have easier access to service. D. They are more comfortable.
2. Which ebike will a consumer probably choose, who cares most about an excellent experience?
A. Carbo Model X. B. The VanMoofs and the Cowboys.
C. Temple Cycles Classic. D. Riese & Müller Nevo4 GT Vario GX.
3. Where is the text probably taken from?
A. An online post. B. A magazine column.
C. A market research report. D. An official document.
【答案】1. C 2. D 3. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍的是 Cycling Electric 推荐的三款电动自行车。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二款自行车介绍部分的“Temples have fewer proprietary (品牌专卖的) parts and so are
serviceable in any bike shop. Stylish as they may be, the VanMoofs and the Cowboys can be a bit more complex to
get back-up and service.(Temples 的专用部件较少，因此在任何自行车商店都可以维修。尽管 VanMoofs 和
Cowboys 可能很时髦，但要获得支持和服务可能会有点复杂。)”可知，Temples 比其他时尚的电动自行车
品牌的优势是它们更容易获得服务。故选 C。
【2题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一款车的介绍部分的“This is a prime example of the attention to detail delivering a
high-quality experience in functionality, comfort and practicality— if you can afford it.(如果你能负担得起的话，
这是一个注重细节，在功能、舒适和实用性方面提供高质量体验的典型例子。)”可知，最关心良好的体验
的消费者会选择 Riese & Müller Nevo4 GT Vario GX。故选 D。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“Now, Cycling Electric, designed to help consumers choose an ebike,
offers the following recommendations.(现在，旨在帮助消费者选择电动自行车的 Cycling Electric 提供了以下
建议。)”可知，主要介绍的是 Cycling Electric 推荐的三款电动自行车，因此很可能是来自于一个杂志专栏。
故选 B。
B
Having spent more than a decade on the dance floor, ROME — Niccolo Filippi, a 23-year-old Italian dance
performer, recently decided to explore Chinese culture and its traditional dance forms and believes that this
experience will not only boost his career, but also broaden his horizons beyond the world of dance.
His interest in diversifying his skills grew after he stumbled upon a short video of traditional Chinese-styled
dance on YouTube. “I saw it as an art that combines tradition and modernity, which was mostly the reason why I
liked it,” says Filippi.
Ever since, he has been closely following Chinese dance performers and watching numerous videos to learn
more about the traditional style that he admires. “I prefer the traditional style because of its light movements. It also
reflects my personality with elegance,” he adds.
Filippi’s chance came when he was invited to perform for a Chinese New Year celebration in the central Italian
city of Florence. He has since fully committed himself to the art form, learning several pieces and putting his
newfound passion into practice.
“The biggest difference that I found (compared to other disciplines) is the change of mood and emotional
expressions among dances,” says Filippi, adding that he needed to shift from the dynamic moves of hip-hop to the
graceful and fluid movements of Chinese dance. Despite various obstacles, Filippi’s efforts have not gone
unnoticed. Two of his friends shared videos of his performances on social media, and the response was
overwhelming. One video garnered 500,000 views, while the other received 200,000 views.
Filippi believes that learning about different cultures is priceless, and he sees it as a means of personal growth.
“I like to think of a person as a book,” he says. “Embracing different traditions and cultures, such as Chinese
culture and many others, is like adding new chapters to my book, making it more diverse and wonderful.”
4. What is the main reason why Filippi falls in love with traditional Chinese dance?
A. Its potential to boost his career. B. Its mix of traditional and modern elements.
C. Its graceful and light movements. D. Its true reflection of his elegant personality.
5. How does the author illustrate the popularity of Filippi’s videos?
A. By listing numbers. B. By giving an example.
C. By sharing a story. D. By making a comparison.
6
.
What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Filippi thinks little of learning from other cultures.
B. People prefer to write down their past experiences.
C. Accepting various cultures boosts personal growth.
D. A book with chapters on traditions is more wonderful.
7. What is the main idea of the passage?
A
.
Chinese-styled dance videos go viral on social media.
